Now, the thigh-high boots I’m lusting after are heeled. But, I [...]

By Marlene • Jul 1st, 2009 • Category: Fashion How-to's

After graduating college when I first started working, my wardrobe situation was incredibly frustrating. In fact, I clearly remember not being the only one of my friends who consistently suffered from having absolutely nothing to wear. My closet was filled with clothes mind you, and so was theirs.

Summer’s Best Wedges

By Marlene • May 15th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

Spring and summer footwear calls for two things: some sassy sandals and some super sexy wedges.

I mean, what else are you [...]



Phoenix Summer Fashion Finds

By Marlene • May 13th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

Today, I just feel like shopping. It’s just one of those days. I know, I pretty much feel like shopping everyday. But today I’m curious what’s new at all my favorite shops.

Today, I just feel like shopping. It’s bright and sunny out, surprisingly toasty actually, and a perfect day to spend outdoors…in the form of shopping that is.
Today I’m lusting after

Saks Fifth Avenue Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas

By Marlene • Jan 22nd, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

While my personal indifference for Valentine’s Day is pretty well-known to all those around me, it doesn’t mean I don’t still like window shopping or perusing gift ideas for everyone else. I have a small threshold for things that are too cheesy, but these Valentine’s Day gift ideas from the buyers at Saks Fifth Avenue [...]
